I love California! Who doesn’t? This place has everything from tasty seafood to beautiful ocean beaches. California is considered to be one of the best vacation spots in the world. Read on to find out more about California.
First of all, there many things to do in California. One place to go is the San Francisco Bay area. You can ride famous cable cars, and go to Chinatown, which is North America’s largest Asian community. Another place to go is Southern California, where you can visit Pueblo De Los Angeles (that means town of angels). You can also go to Universal Studios, and Burbank Studios to see how movies are made.
Secondly, there area lot of fascinating facts about California. Some famous people from California are Tiger Woods (a golfer), Julia Child (a chef), and Michelle Kwan (a figure skating champion). The state flower is the Golden Poppy; Native Americans used the flower as food and oil. Another fun fact is that in 1769, the first Spanish mission was established in San Diego.
Finally, California is famous for its climate. There are many things you should know about the weather and geography. Summers in California are sunny and warm so you should bring flip flops or sandals, shorts, T-shirts, and a swimsuit. Northern California’s temperatures are colder than the south, and the north also receives more rain. California is the third largest state in the USA. In the Northern part of the state lay high mountains that form part of the Cascade Range. Streams from these mountains feed the Sacramento River, California’s longest river. Rolling hills and mountains follow the coastline. On the other side of the coast range is the giant central valley. Most of the state's crops are grown there. On the eastern side of the central valley lay rugged granite mountains called the Sierra Nevada (Spanish for “Snowy Mountain Range”). Dry south central California includes Death Valley, Mojave and Colorado deserts.
Now you know what a great state California is. You know some super cool facts, things to do and pack it up facts. I hope to spot you under the California’s sun.
